Gear returned in great condition, with only minor signs of use, such as slight scuffs or pick marks. It looks and plays like new and may be considered an equivalent to display units found in retail stores.

So I use this product with Logic Pro X and Pro Tools. The key velocities are all messed up. It's great for programming pads and strings and long tones but when you try and play piano sounds, the the velocities are so quiet. You have to hit every key extremely hard to get the dynamics right which makes smoothness and consistency almost impossible. It's fine if you want to go in and fix every individual key stroke for the desired velocity, but honestly the m-audio keyboard is significantly better. The drum pads can't really register anything faster than a sixteenth note (under 120 BPM) and the assignable nobs leave much to be desired. I wouldn't recommend this keyboard to anyone and I plan on returning it this week. I wish that it worked better because it's such a beautiful keyboard but sadly, it doesn't.

The sensitivity is all over the place. Notes randomly super loud and then often notes won't play at all especially when playing faster. It is completely unusable which is really too bad because I like the layout and simplicity of it.
